Abstract

When introduced intranasally, P. cepacia AC1100 (~108 CFU/animal) and P. aeruginosa AC869 (~103 CFU/animal) were readily cleared from the mouse. However, a ~107-CFU dose of AC869 persisted for 14 days. Strain AC869 had a 50% lethal dose of 2.7 x 107 CFU. Slight morbidity occurred in animals treated with ~107 CFU of AC869 or ~108 CFU of AC1100.
